The fact that the store allows them to be out there whether they own the lot or not is a problem. Prices in the store are what you would normally find at a grocery outlet but these flock cameras, supersede any pennies and nickels you can save selling off your and your kids and families images to large AI corporations and military government, and we all know the evil that they have been doing.

Review #866 2025-038…read more I first discovered Grocery Outlet about a decade ago in Fresno, & was attracted to the unusual finds at a "grocery store," such as an Olaf bike helmet, Curious George: Discovery Beach Game, etc. The first S. Bay store opened 6 years ago in Redondo Beach, just before COVID-19; it's a bit out of way to shop there. And about a year ago, they took over the former Big Lots location in Lomita. What is Grocery Outlet? They're a discount grocery chain that sells name brand groceries & fresh produce for 40% - 70% less than conventional grocery stores. How? By buying overstocked, seasonal, closeout, & discontinued items from various suppliers. This "opportunistic buying" allows them to acquire items at significant discounts, which are passed on to us. My 14 YO daughter's swim team does this away meet "gift" (junk) exchange where they create a goody bag filled with their fav snacks & drinks. They're kids so it's obviously junk foods & sodas, except for the handful who treat each meet with consideration of this bag o' treats may hinder their performance. I'm grateful for the less expensive options at Grocery Outlet. Since I don't agree with their choices, I started creating my own carbo-load sustenance (fresh fruits, granola bars, nuts, etc.) on competition days. Grocery Outlet offer pretty great deals on fresh fruits, I especially loved the 2-lb. strawberry pack that my husband got recently... so fresh, juicy, & sweet! I got some red cherries (at $2.99/lb.) that were sweet too! Not all produce offer better quality & prices, I'd say it's more like 50-50. Another recent find was A-Sha Spicy Seaweed (only 99¢) & Keroppi Mandarin Noodles with Silly Spicy Sauce (60% discount). Store hours are 7:00 AM - 10:00 PM daily, just a couple hours shorter than the traditional stores. Wide aisles are well-stocked & organized, but you may not always find the same products at your next shopping trip due to opportunistic buying, & what may be priced that day may be priced differently the next day (e.g. Quaker Chewy Limited Edition Valentine Minis: Chocolate Chip with Sprinkles was 99¢, & 2 days later it was $3.99). Also, it's important to check the expiration dates for those too-good-to-be-true deals, they usually have a short expiration dates or are already expired. Yikes! There's usually only 1 register opened even when there's a line, I wish they would opened another register, but the cashiers are typically quick that sometimes I have to load my own bags.

I remember this location from back in the day was a movie theatre and then in the most recent years, a LA Fitness. I used to go to the gym here often and so it felt a little nostalgic walking in remembering when the gym got renovated. Now at Last Chance, it's been transformed into more of a giant warehouse of random things. Gone is the fresh paint and shiny gym mirrors and instead it's replaced with tables filled with random stuff. It is more like a giant garage sale and the whole place had a noticeable odor. The overall atmosphere also felt a bit uncomfortable for me personally due to the security presence. This spot wasn't the right fit for me, but for others they may have a different experience.

Dollar Tree is one of those great fully stock stores that when you go into it, you never know what…read moreyou're gonna find. Yes, most people go in to this business to get there household items, and maybe a few bits of food and drink. But, this store is much more than that. They have a ton of the everything else. Located on PCH, at the building that once house the ninety-nine cent store, this business is easy to find. It's right on the corner of Narbonne. The parking lot is large, so you generally never have a problem finding a parking spot. This being said, this parking lot can sometimes be a bit congested, with a few people driving not that consciously. Just something to keep in mind. What's inside this store is all very well organized. They have their aisles devoted to very specific items. Whether you're looking for small electronic items, maybe something for your car, and the tons and tons of the other kinds of household items they offer, it's all very well put together. Overall, this shop is a great place to get all of those necessary and non-necessary items at a great price.

Review #883 2025-056…read more What can you write about Dollar Tree? By now, most have heard of this store that was often compared with 99 Cents Only Store since they, as a discount variety store, have similar pricing strategies & product lineups. With inflation, COVID-19, & other factors, Dollar Tree is no longer a "dollar" store instead its price base is $1.25 + higher prices for certain consumables & name brands. Still, DT offers decent value... then there's the "thrill-of-the-hunt" shopping experience, which I haven't found at this location yet. This location replaced the defunct 99 Cents Only Stores; it looks the same with similar inventory of snacks, food, home goods, health & beauty items, toys, school supplies (gotta love them low cost composition books), party & seasonal supplies, etc. It's fairly organized but not as well-stocked as its predecessor. My 14 YO daughter's swim team does this away meet "gift" (junk) exchange where they create a goody bag filled with their fav snacks & drinks. They're kids so it's obviously junk foods & sodas, except for the handful who treat each meet with consideration of this bag o' treats may hinder their performance. Dollar Tree has most of their (junk food) munchies & drinks available, not that I agree with their choices but these bags supposedly builds camaraderie. I like that it's next to Grocery Outlet so when I can't find snacks here, I can walk next door to finish up. When we adopted a 5-week stray kitten (my cousin was spaying/neutering a feral colony in the neighborhood) a couple of months ago, I found some cat toys (fishing rod, crinkly ketchup & mustard) for Snow's entertainment. The rod didn't fare well, but what can you expect for $1.25? I came back & didn't find any in stock. =( Recently, I've been laid off & stopped by for Halloween goody bags & candies for my son's class. I'm not a fan of these goody bags but it's common practice & I don't want my son to be that kid that didn't participate. I liked 99¢ Store better because they also offered erasers, pencils, sticker packs, etc. so I'm not giving candy only... though I'm partial to Haribo gummies & Smarties. Oh, if you're having a party, this location also sells balloons, they don't have Party City's variety but what they offer works IMO. Come to Dollar Tree for affordable everyday essentials. It's convenient & budget-friendly, particularly if you're feeling the strain of inflation/the economy.

I just wanted to give a shoutout to the folks working at the donation drop off. I've been twice now…read moreand they are just so patient, kind and friendly. I had brought a ton of baby seats and the guy kindly explained to me why he couldn't take them, but then also offered other ways I could try and get rid of them. Typically at other donation centers you're rudely told they can't take them. That didn't happen here and I really appreciated the way he handled it! I also can't get over the fact that you get a 20% off coupon for donating items. You do have to dig to find items, but once you find something you truly fall in love with it and it's at a pretty epic price. Savers is now a really fun part of my self-care routine :-)

Seeing as I didn't catch his name, I hope this review helps in identifying him because he was great. However, their prices are... not good, usually. Sometimes they're great, of course. And other times I'm looking at a Dollar Tree item that's marked as $7 when I know for a fact it was $1 originally. Their clothes are similar in price to items--which aren't thrifted, mind you--at Ross or Marshall's. It's a for-profit corporation and the prices show.

Household goods, kitchenware, arts and crafts, school supplies, party supplies, hardware supplies, tools, food and snacks, cleaning products, etc. Although they have tons of items, there's a few things they need to correct here. Items that are not tagged can be tricky. The cashier can charge you at any price on the spot and you wouldn't know unless you ask. What looks like a dollar can be more. Inflation and tariffs are definitely hurting the pocket. You also can't go back inside once you've paid. If you bought something already and checked out, you can't go back inside unless you leave your items up front. Maybe they've had issues with theft before or miscommunications with items. The cashier was friendly however, she was nice about it. Just strange practices but I get it, it's a small business and people probably steal here. EDIT: Came back here again shortly after. Cashier Julie was not nice and needs to be more friendly. Different cashier than the first one. She's a F!l!p!no lady. Kind of snooty and arrogant. Didn't smile nor said hello. When I spoke to her in Tagalog, she acted like she didn't hear me and responded back in English. The other guys that stock here are nice however. We needed an empty box to put all our stuff in but he took it from us to bring it up to the front before we can use it. This small store is a bit strict.
